I'd be interested in a study that examined something like this, though I'd be wary of its accuracy. It's my assumption that areas where rape is prevalent are areas where where society dismisses accusations or even deliberately tries to prevent victims from coming forward.

Well, the term "househusband" came about as something as a joke during the 70s and isn't really considered to be positive (probably in the way that many things associated with femininity or characteristics/roles commonly attributed to women are considered negative when applied to males). It also sounds horribly…

I had a similar discussion with my father recently. He argued that schools should be teaching more life lessons and values. I felt that it was ridiculous, because school probably shouldn't be the place to do that sort of teaching — not just because I'd really prefer that the the foundation is laid prior to entering…

It's sad that I think that the three sex education classes that each lasted about an hour is far more than I received, both from the school and the parental units.

I adore the Ace Attorney games. They're a lot of fun and I'm eagerly waiting for more games to make it to the States. They play a lot like visual novels, but you need to figure out different clues and plots, then apply that knowledge in court in order to trip up witnesses and discover what really happened.

Illusions, Lindy. As per Gob Bluth, a trick is something a whore does for money.

I read a comment on an earlier article that stated that they love their government so small that it fits into a woman's uterus.

I watched the video where he cut her in the chest (not her breast, from what I could see). It's gruesome, but I didn't find it overly offensive or worrisome.

"...and I think here on Gawker too."

I'm glad that you pointed this out. I'm not fond of Fox News, but I do recognize how ridiculous it is to berate them when both CNN and Gawker posted video with the same clip yesterday.

I don't post many pictures of myself on my Facebook account, but I do use my photo albums as another portfolio, in addition to my portfolio domain and my work's Facebook page. It's one of the few albums that I have viewable to the public, mostly with the hopes that people looking me up on Facebook are doing so in a…

Hilarious.

I'm a little disappointed. I'd much rather see the original in all of its British glory. On the other hand, if certain idioms were making it difficult for the American audiences to understand, it does make sense to make changes.

I've been following the trial across myriad sites and some of the community responses have been horrifying. I saw one on CNN where a number of people were defending the boys, claiming that the girl deserved what happened to her because she put herself into that position. A woman who drinks to excess in the presence of…

I try not to be too critical of people's writings, particularly on a site like this, but I also had difficulties following the post. It seems like that there were paragraphs of build-up to the main point of the article, but then it just floundered.

I read the article as sarcasm.

I stopped reading as soon as people started accusing those who disagreed of being ugly, jealous women.

The post is a little disturbing. He details in a list the various actresses who he has found to be beautiful (resulting in a "frisson of beatitude," which just sounds like a creepy way to say "surge of happiness") and then goes on to describe other women who are sexy ("no straight man would kick any of them out of…

Is that in response to his use of the word "cantankerous?"

I haven't read it any where except in comments from readers reacting to articles. While it is a viable alternate scenario, it always leaves me feeling like it's an underground theory that has been rendered "true" in the eyes of people on the Internet because it's been said enough times.
